Approach play is one of the key aspects to success on the PGA Tour, with a whole range of irons being used on the circuit to win throughout 2026.
In fact, after crunching the numbers, we've found a total of 38 different iron models were used, among 10 manufacturers, to win the 34 PGA Tour tournaments in the regulation season.
Like the most successful drivers on the PGA Tour through 2026, Titleist feature regularly, with its T100 irons the most popular as it featured in the bag of nine winners.
Wyndham Clark had T100 in 6-9 iron for the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and US Open, while Tom Kim used a 4-9 iron configuration and Alex Fitzpatrick, Russell Henley and JT Poston a 5-9 configuration for their respective victories.
In terms of other players, Cameron Young used a T100 5-iron at The Players Championship and Cadillac Championship, while Jackson Koivun had a T100 4-iron in play to win the 3M Open.
Titleist staffers are a prominent feature in this list as players will often use different models in a combo set, due to the fact there are forgiving options in the 3-5 iron range, as well as models designed for more feel and control in the 7-9 iron area.
Five T200 models won in 2026, while the T250 was present in three wins. Other Titleist models include the 620 MB and CB, as well as the T150 and even a prototype model from Young called the 631.CY, a set specifically designed to his specs.
It's not just Titleist that has enjoyed successes, though, this season, as TaylorMade, Ping and Srixon were also used among the notable winners, registering 29 victories between them.
Collin Morikawa, Jacob Bridgeman, Rory McIlroy, Aaron Rai and Michael Thorbjornsen had combo sets of TaylorMade irons in their bags, while Scottie Scheffler used a near full set of TaylorMade irons.
Primarily, the P Series range were the weapons of choice, such as the P770, P7CB, P7MC, P7MB and P7TW but there were also prototypes and older models present.
McIlroy, for example, had a set of Rors Protos in the bag for his Masters win, while Bridgeman had a decade-old TP UDI in play for his Genesis Invitational victory.
Speaking of older models, Matt Fitzpatrick used a set of Ping S55 irons for his three wins, with the 13-year-old clubs helping him to a superb season.
Fellow Ryder Cup teammate, Viktor Hovland, also used Ping i210s from 2018 to claim the Travelers Championship in June.
Ping was the third most popular manufacturer in the iron section, while Srixon was the fourth, with its models helping Ryan Fox to an Open Championship title.
The New Zealander was using a prototype Srixon ZXi5+ at Royal Birkdale, as well as the traditional ZXi5 and ZXi7 sets of irons that were also included in Nico Echavarria and JJ Spaun's set-ups.
Scheffler used a Srixon ZU85 4-iron as part of his near full TaylorMade bag.

Akshay Bhatia and Stefano Mazzoli had five different Callaway irons in their winning set-ups, while Gary Woodland used a Wilson utility iron and the Cobra King Tour and King MB for his Texas Children's Houston Open victory.
